What if the portrait be somewhat out of drawing? the critic is your good friend. Ly. I think my best way out of it will be to call in the aid of some of the old masters I have named: let them fashion the likeness for me. Poly. Well, but will they come? They have been dead so long. Ly. That is easily managed: but you must not mind answering me a few questions. Poly. You have but to ask. Ly.
Which do you mean? those who have been by which road, and under whose guidance? It is the old puzzle in a new form; you have only substituted men for measures. Her. How do you mean? Ly. Why, the man who has taken Plato's road and travelled with him will recommend that road; so with Epicurus and the rest; and you will recommend your own. How else, Hermotimus? it must be so. Her. Well, of course.
These things do so excessively trouble her brain; that she can hardly the whole day think upon any thing else, yea goes so near her that it oftentimes totally bereaves her of her nights rest insomuch that she is fain to ly very long abed in the morning.
Well, that was not my only way; every one told me the Epicureans were sensual and self-indulgent, the Peripatetics avaricious and contentious, the Platonists conceited and vain; about the Stoics, on the contrary, many said they had fortitude and an open mind; he who goes their way, I heard, was the true king and millionaire and wise man, alone and all in one. Ly.
So that, even if we go all through all philosophy, we shall have no certainty of finding the truth even then; that is what you say. Ly. Please, please do not ask me; once more, apply to reason itself. Its answer will perhaps be that there can be no certainty yet as long as we cannot be sure that it is one or other of the things they say it is. Her.
He did not like to be interrupted he loved his own company the best while he was 'doin' business'. I went one day when he was singing the two lines and their quaint chorus which was all he ever sang in my hearing; which gave him great relief, I have no doubt, when lip weary with whistling: Sez I 'Dan'l Skinner, I thank yer mighty mean To send me up the river, With a sev'n dollar team' Lul-ly, ul ly, diddie ul ly, diddleul lydee, Oh, lul-ly, ul ly, diddle ul ly, diddle ul ly dee.
But you are so masterful, you will not let me make a choice, till I have proved all. Ly. Why, I confess, you will never get me to budge from that. But when you call me masterful, it seems to me you blame the blameless, as the poet says; for I am myself being dragged along by reason, until you bring up some other reason to release me from durance.
You say no one can judge for himself, unless he can devote the life of a phoenix to going round experimenting; and on the other hand you refuse to trust either previous experience or the multitude of favourable testimony. Ly. Where is your multitude, with knowledge and experience of all? Never mind the multitude; one man who answers the description will do for me.
